PROJECT IDEAS<\/p>\n

A grant can be a powerful tool for achieving what might otherwise be impossible, or at least very difficult, to accomplish. What are some project ideas you have in mind for addressing a specific problem or need? If you were to apply for a grant, what would you pursue? What might your organization pursue?<\/p>\n

With project ideas in mind, read the literature and familiarize yourself with evidence-based practices associated with the problems you are seeking to address. Determine what is currently being done to solve or mitigate these problems. This step is extremely important in determining how or if to proceed with your own project idea.<\/p>\n

For this Discussion, critically think through your project ideas and concepts, as well as the literature, and select one to further develop for your grant proposal. Use the Process Development Template, located in this week\u2019s Learning Resources, to organize your ideas regarding the purpose of the project and the research you have conducted.<\/p>\n

\n
\n Note:<\/i>
\n <\/b>
\n \u00a0Use the Process Development Template as an iterative and cumulative worksheet for keeping notes and ideas about the different elements that will be addressed in your grant proposal. While this document will not be submitted for grading, it will inform assignments that are submitted. You are encouraged to use this template as both a guide for, and record of, the work you are doing.<\/i>\n <\/p>\n

For your first Discussion, review this module\u2019s Learning Resources.<\/p>\n

\n BY DAY 3 OF WEEK 1<\/b>
\n <\/h3>\n

Post\u00a0your response to the Discussion area in the Blackboard classroom.<\/p>\n

Part A:<\/p>\n

Describe your previous grant-writing experiences and explain what are, in your opinion, the most challenging aspects of grant writing. If you have not had previous grant-writing experience, what are some challenges you might anticipate and why? Describe the work you are currently involved in for which you might pursue funding.<\/p>\n

Part B:<\/p>\n

Post your project idea, explaining the needs it will meet. Explain why this project might be attractive to potential funders, and distinguish it from others that have addressed the same problem.<\/p>\n
